Re: wow!

thanks, Deltaform's North face is quite imposing, containing one of the most infamous snow/ice routes in all of North America....and to think it use to be on my tick list!

Re: wow!

no, the obvious line there is the north glacier ice fall....so many seracs and in such bad condition, no one would dare climb it. The Super Couloir route is the thin snow/ice line to the right....tons of objective hazard, rock fall, in its own right...finishes on two horrible rock pitches....cheers
